“Our mission is to encourage,
support, develop and promote voluntary activity amongst all sections of the
community of Royston and the surrounds, whilst aspiring to provide a quality
service and ensure effective partnerships with a wide range of voluntary sector
organisations.”
Let us help you make a difference in
your local community!
Here are some of the comments our volunteers
made about our services last year.
"I think it’s a brilliant set up and very worthwhile – not only
does the community benefit but also the volunteer does as it provides a sense
of purpose".
"I found contact with the centre informative, friendly and
helpful and easily accessible".
"Very professional and good at paying attention to the details
in my requests and in catering [….] to my situation and preferences".
"The volunteer Centre was very
useful in explaining and helping me decide which volunteer placement would
suit me best".
Can you volunteer without affecting your
benefits? YES!!!
WHAT'S NEW!!!!

Thank you to those that came to see us on
these two days and told us of their volunteering experiences and looked for new
opportunities to volunteer.
